Gabby (no idea who she was, she's in All-New Wolverine)X-23 (looks like she's about to spew)Nightcrawler (also looks like he's about to spew)Namor (why Marvel are still desperate to insist he's a mutant I don't know)Gentle (never heard of him in my life, had to goggle him)Trinary (new character)

Big fan of them announcing Jean's new book and entire team before the event about her return has even begun.

I’m massively out of the loop with comics in general and have never really followed DC but am I right in my understanding that they are bringing/have already brought back Watchmen in some capacity as part of the regular DC Universe?

Axel Alonso is gone from Marvel and they've got a new editor-in-chief. "Mutually parted ways" which sounds to me like he was pushed out. Not surprised after the past few years, I bet all the Secret Empire press and the shambolic Legacy stuff was the last straw.

I read Secret Empire today. What a load of strawberry floating gooseberry fool that was. The story wasn't all that interesting but it's the EPIC style of the writing that makes the whole thing really stink.

"Captain America took to the skies, like a legendary falcon or summat, and every one of the Marvel heroes, who are like god's and stuff, gazed towards the heavens to watch him soar like a big mythical bird thing. And everything that was happening was really, really important"

The whole thing is written with a real head up its own arse tone to try and get across just how big a deal everything is but it just comes across as try hard guff. If there was half as much scene setting writing it'd actually be a better book.

I see Marvel have announced another relaunch in May after previously saying they weren't going to do another relaunch anytime soon after Secret Empire They strawberry floating needed to do one to be honest because it's a mess just now. Good to see Jason Aaron is on Avengers (like everyone predicted) and the lineup is pretty cool.
